[jQuery] Flecks on some images with jQuery+Cycle Plugin

[jQuery] Flecks on some images with jQuery+Cycle Plugin


I have a strange problem with a slideshow in IE7 where white flecks
are appearing on some images and is most noticeable in the darker
areas of photographs. This only seems to be happening in IE so no
surprise there, I am using jquery.cycle.all.pack.js?v2.21 and here is
my JS for the slideshow:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function() {
$('#imageRotator').cycle({
fx: 'fade',
speed: 3000
});
});
</script>
Nothing out of the ordinary as far as I can see but welcome any ideas
to get over this as it is for a site about to live and the client
wants to pull affected images out which I want to avoid. The source
images in question do not have the flecks on the images if you view
them directly. I welcome any ideas/solutions as to what this is and
how to overcome it.
TIA, Simon
